Yes is true! But Trump are more interested in his fight with China than do something radical with this infection. In fact, several states and cities (like New York) are acting before President desition...and he claims for this!!! Really, there are some governments like Trump, Bolsonaro and others, that have no sense and are playing with thousands of lives only for vanity!

Trump knows very well that this coronavirus is not very dangerous and i told you that the United States of America spread this virus in the same day when China equaled and probably surpassed the USA in the world economy. WSOP 2020, EURO football and hundreds of millions of lives have been changed because that's what the leaderships of USA wants.

If this virus is not that dangerous, then why all the have taken all these measures? And there are more to come. But i guess you have lived and experienced more situations like this one and you know better And one of the things that has made this so dangerous according to the experts, is the speed of course of the transmission.

Oh CALICUL, at this time, I only wish that your denial position of this matter don´t make you hurt. How many dies do you need to see before you change your opinion? And the issue of how it´s begin could be a fantasy tale. So far scientists assume it is a remarkable cross between bat and snake. Remarkable (and unpleasantly) both are consumed in China.

You really think this disease came from bat and the snake? That it means you are a man which is manipulated very easily. It's incredible how you can believe in lies of those who trying to "implant" a world government. All the culprits who lied and spread the coronavirus including governors, need to be arrested because they intentionally destroyed lives of many people. We have no sports, money from our jobs, no live poker, etc ... Our rights are being curtailed and is very ugly because the dictatorship is established.

In fact, the situation in Las Vegas made changes that become it in a strange landscape. Do you see the picture? That city with all her lights off in the night is really rare thing, like an invasion or a big catastrophe! All the world is like that. The best-known sites, without people, are a picture of a paralel universe...Or a picture took by a machine after the neutronic bomb!

Those who have online casinos can still make money, but this whole story with the coronavirus, affects hundreds of millions of lives. In Las Vegas the money will no longer be earned by all owners who have business there. This is it and we can't do anything.

Well I´m fine with the isolation. I found that this is good for me. I stand up late, after sleep all that I wanted, I make the meal that I want at the time that I want, I seat down in my desktop to see all that I want, and I play all the tournaments that I really want. I might be used of this schedule, without chief and gymnastic effort! It´s a joke, my organism need the sun and the physical training to make a good life!

It is good that you are in isolation and not in quarantine, because this manipulation can get you there , if you get a little flu. Las Vegas can be reopened quickly or it can be over 9 months. Great disaster brings these strong leaders of the world...

as I see from some you tube videos,that gambles posting on their channels,they say that now everything is closed in las vegas and that they have videos from days before this closing,so we are sure now that everything is "dead" in this city that never sleep!how can everything change in just one month!

It would be one of the kind and super weird if they decide to schedule all WSOP tournaments ONLINE , in their poker room , or another poker room , lol .
Anyway ,I haven't heard of WSOP cancellation or postponement until now , I don't know what they will decide in the future .But it's really strange that others got on a rush to postpone or cancel other major sport or culture events , which would happen it 3, 4or more months , but WSOP officials haven't made their mind yet what theya re going to do . Not that I am against this calm approach , trying to earn some time , see what next days will be like or whatever , I like this . I am just saying why other rushed so much to take immediate decisions , as if waiting for 15 days , one month or twoo months might be disastrous , really strange behavior , really it makes you wonder ....
Anyway , Las Vegas is a dead/desert city now , evrything closed , disaster for the casinos and some good profitable series of pker that they would run this summer ....

It's not too big a disaster for casinos but their losses are quite large. When things get back to normal people will play more and spend if their unemployment is paid. It is important for people to realize that it is not good for the economy and to start quickly the restart of the jobs.

So many infected , this is very sad news , I heard sth that it will take a long time , some months to find the vaccine , I hope this is exaggeration , I wish they will find a way to restrict it asap , this month or next month . Ofcourse , on the meanwhile any thoughts for some events to take place , despite the cancellations of the previous days/months , is totally unrealistic . If a miracle doesn't happen , WSOP cancellation is a standard to bet , a safe bet and win . Although , I wonder , could they play few of the WSOP events (the non online ones ) also online , logically with far less prizes ?????? I wouldn't like to see sth like this . Better postpone it for a six month period , or cancel it at all ......

Too much infection with lies because here we are talking about political things that many of us do not understand... Fear is not good and people have two options 1. To stay at home. 2. To go out and not to obey the law. Las Vegas will be ok for a while.

Coronavirus has semi-closed many countries and it is normal for all people to talk about it. I read a lot and this is a biological terrorist attack. Because of that we people suffer and business owners as well. I would like those who rule the world to be arrested and judge by a coorect law.

Yes , you are right , there is no legally regulated online poker in all US states ,so it wouldn't be possible this series , at least some of tits games to played online , and declare a World Champion for each event played .
If not all players from the world have the chance to compete in this series of WSOP tournaments , for sure we cannot say the winner would be a World champion
He would be a ''regional winner'' . WSOP has all this glamour and fame , because all players from around the world come to compete each other , for the greatest prizepools . If not all can play if they wish , if the prizepools are too low and very decreased , this is not worthy of WSOP fame and history
